Twenty feet or so would let me point it out the window into the gutter for the second-floor roof (which was my plan if only I could find that mumblefrotz plastic tubing that I remember having someplace).
I tried pulling the coloured wires out of a no longer needed length of grey telephone cord to turn it into a (small) hose, but after the first six inches or so, all I was doing was stretching it and making the far end skinnier and skinnier. *sigh*
I figure even if whatever siphon I manage to make as a tiny slow rate, it can just run and run and run and drain the pool over the course of however many unrainy days we have when this finally stops.
